Watch: Jens Lekman Sings About Kirsten Dunst

This past August, two of your Pitchfork News representatives were in Gothenburg, Sweden for the Way Out West Festival. Swedish twee great Jens Lekman performed at the fest, and rumor had it that Kirsten Dunst and Kiefer Sutherland were also in town, filming a movie with Lars von Trier and showing up drunk at various festival-related events. And now here we have video of Lekman singing a song about stalking Kirsten Dunst-- an anecdote that sure sounds like it took place that very same weekend in Gothenburg.

As Consequence of Sound points out, Lekman played a poolside show at L.A.'s Mondrian Hotel over the weekend. (UPDATE: This show was presented by IAMSOUND Records.) Now, there's video of Lekman singing this solo acoustic sad/romantic song about learning that a movie star likes your music and trying and failing to meet her. I can personally attest to the lack of VIP lines in Gothenburg that apparently kept Lekman and Dunst apart. But there's always next summer's festival season.
